Your X-Maxx includes an innovative latching system for
securing the body to the chassis. To remove the body for
chassis access:
1. Turn the handle 90 degrees counterclockwise to unlock the
body latch.
2. Open the latch to release the truck body from the rear
shock tower.
3. Gently lift the rear of the body. Do not lift too far or the body
will become difficult to remove.
4. Slide the body backward away from the front shock tower
to release the front body tab. (Installation of the body is the
reverse of removal.)
5. Practice this a few times until you become familiar with
the latching mechanism. The more you do it, the faster you
will be.
